Table 2.

Mechanical results, ultimate conversions and shrinkage stress values for DVS-based thiol-ene composites filled with 50 wt% of allylated microparticles.

Composite Strain at Break (%) Young’s Modulus (GPa) Flexural Strength (MPa) Toughness (J·m−3·104) Final Conv. (MTS Samples) (%) Final Shrinkage Stress (MPa)
BisGMA/TEGDMA 1.3 (0.2)A 6.6 (0.2)A 87 (6)A 65 (18)A 64 (3)A 0.81 (0.07)A
TEOC 01 2.0 (0.2)B 4.3 (0.3)B 75 (2)A 85 (17)A 59 (1)A 0.63 (0.02)B

The results for the dimethacrylate control (filled with 50 wt % of methacrylated microparticles) are also included. Mechanical tests were performed one week after initial curing with samples aged at ambient conditions. Brackets show standard deviations. Means that do not share a superscript letter are significantly different.
